What is true of this diatrict ia equally true of the Copper River Valley, tbe Tanana, the Koyukuk and other gold fields before mentioned. The committee is of tbe opinion that great obligation mats on the United State to adopt a ayatejn of wagon roads for the relief of miners in the American territory, ft says a well constructed wagon read should rnn-pethe waters of the Fartflr with Ihowt of the Yukon river at Earle. The diataace is about 400 miles. With thia road built Earle, by reaaon of her location, should be the distributing point for American, good for a great portion of the Yukon basin. Tbe report says no many and var- ying are tbe abusea practiced under the mining laws that the committee made a general investigation of complaints and wommended amendments to tbe laws. Among tbe important changes asked is tbst there lie required a certain amount of assessment work on each mining claim staked to the right to out as a have the claim recorded; that the assessment work to be dune on each claim daring each subsequent eaieii-ijyear shall be largely Increased in amount, and that no iierson kIihII lie allowed to stake out or locate, or bold ar except by purchase more than one mining claim on the same creek. The fur seal industry ia treated extensively by the committee, but the announcement Is made that this industry will be given separate consideration. It is recommended that the government improve the harbor at St. Michael in order to permit nnobetrueted psensae to tbe mouth of tb Yukon: a!(j that improvement be mtde st the mouth of the ftnsJre river in order to permit the nsfo. lauding of passengers to Nom. . Alaska is divided into three Judical districts; Ths committee says that on account of the great size of these districts and poor transportation facilities, it Ik impossible In some sections to get justice. A fourth judicial district is recommended. The committee says the general opinion of- all classes is that Alaska should' be represented by a delegate In Congress. In a number of aeetions in Alaska, the committee encounters agitation for the establishment of territorial government and the election of an assembly. This is not recommended by tbe committee, huweter. as ttvm the best dal a it obtained tbe committee believes the term auent white pupii-.laUof Alaska today will exceed 3,- prtM-tirlll- y The necessity of rendering some support to the native population is felt by the committee,- which says of these Esqulmos and Indians: Huniers. by nature and habit and able and willing, before the influx of the whites to care for themselves, they arc. through the game laws, wholly deprived of their chief means of maintenance. 14 hy they should he deprived of their immemorial nght to hun at will, pauses h eotuprehenrier of the committee The flr.t measure for he relief of the natives, parijeurai-l- r the Esquimos and Aleuts, should be the nheolnte repeal of the game laws, insofar s their provisions prohibit hunting and trapping by Aborigines and natives, and the sale of skins so taken. Tbe deplorable condition of these classes Is such as to demand other snd further relief at ths hands of Congress. ' The business or Alaska is carried on by citizens of the United States.
